The doorman at a certain medical facility in New York was one of the most AMAZING people I have ever seen. He was as much a part of those people's treatment as the doctors/nurses there. I often had to wait in the lobby during our software implementation for someone to escort me around and ended up spending a total of days worth of time in that lobby. He knew every patient. He interacted with people and made them feel human. I went home and cried every night the amount of human suffering that went through that place, but he lifted every single person I saw come through that door up and I imagine had a huge therapeutic benefit to those people, giving each one a personal, human, intentional and present positive interaction when they were facing horrible chemo, body part removal (people would have cancerous noses, ears, arms, legs removed), etc. Dude was a friggen saint and should have been paid millions the amount of people he touched and strength and positivity he had within him to give. I haven't had a lot of interaction with New York door men but that dude made me a lifelong champion of them. Sorry for the random off topic anecdote.
